Shellturninglathe
Note on back of pic reads: '17 ton, 9.5 inch shell turning lathe made by J A Pickles and Co.' This suggests it was made before the firm became H Brown Sons and Pickles. It's belt driven so this supports an early date. A later pic shows another shell lathe and describes it as 'First shell lathe 1940' so this was actually made by HBSP.
